Online Education: Should You Go Back to School?

 

Education is never a waste of time or money. Whether you want to improve your career prospects or just keep your brain sharp, chances are you’ve considered online education in some form. And it really can be an incredible way to learn, if you’re on the fence about it here’s why you should take the plunge and go ahead.

You can study just about any subject

You really can study just about anything online these days, where online education has been rapidly growing for a number of years. Whether you want to study English, engineering, psychology, science or a social work degree online you’re able to do so. From generic subjects to very specific ones, you won’t be limited by choices when it comes to online study, there’s bound to be a school out there offering exactly what you’re after.

There are lots of options with no entry requirements

One of the things that hold most people from going to university or improving their education, is to get started you often need previous qualifications. This isn’t ideal when you’re at a stage in your life where you need to be earning money as soon as possible. Studying for a degree for three years is a big enough commitment, to then be told you need to earn a foundation degree or A levels over two years first can rightly put people off. Lots of online colleges and universities will accept you without these previous qualifications, and there’s also the option to study for diplomas and other kinds of courses too if you don’t have previous exam results. This makes education far more accessible for most people.

You can study from anywhere

The biggest advantage of studying online is, of course, being able to do it all from anywhere. This means there are no travel costs, it can be done in your own time around any commitments you have. Whether you’re already working full time or looking after your children, you can pick up your study sessions when it suits you. You could log in and study for an hour each morning on your commute, or in the evening when your kids are in bed. You could listen to educational podcasts and webinars while you’re driving or even when you’re cleaning the house. If you’re on a long flight, coach or train journey going on holiday you could download everything to your device and study on the way- you truly can fit it around your life.

It’s great for self development

Most people take up education in adulthood as a way to improve their employability. And it certainly is the way to go, whether you’re after a promotion or are planning on changing careers. However, it’s also something you can do, just for you. As a way to explore a subject that interests you, as a way to achieve a goal of learning something new. Self-development helps us to be the best we can be and prevents us from falling into a rut.

Have you ever studied online?
